In the past? Take some time off, do some reading, attend a couple college courses, fart around and see where the winds take me. Now? I would probably buy a bunch of musical equipment and start a music production company. But, in reality, I

Here is the distinction the author makes: > Not having fucks left to give is when you stop caring what others think. > Not giving a shit is when you stop caring. Burnout? Sounds fair. However, there's a point beyond burnout, IMO,

I fundamentally disagree with the notion that AI is a species or alien intelligence. It is a reflection of humanitys individual and collective intelligence fused with computers. If we reify it and give it agency, sure, it seems alive, but i
